NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans are thrilled to have DeMarco Murray front and center as the poster child for their reformatted franchise.
When they traded in March for the running back from Philadelphia, giving up a fourth-round pick in this year's draft, they said he would embody the rugged, tough-minded style of play they so coveted.
And to be the sort of smashmouth team the Titans want to be, a smashmouth running back is required.
